Cheryl Hines Defends Home Sale to Chelsea Handler

0:00On March 27, Cheryl Hines is pushing back against Chelsea Handler's complaints about a Los Angeles house she bought from Hines and her husband. Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. Handler says the $5.9 million Brentwood property was in such bad shape it took five years to make it livable. Handler first aired her grievances on her own podcast earlier this month. She told a guest that inspectors labeled the place the most toxic environment they had seen, and warned she could not move in for at least two years. Hines defended herself by pointing out she left the personal note for Handler when she took over the home. In it, she said how much they loved the house and included her phone number in case Handler needed any help. Hines suggested Handler is mostly after attention and likes by making jokes at her husband's expense. Handler kept the story going on Jimmy Kimmel live while promoting her comedy tour, turning it into a bit about picking up diseases from the property. A source close to the deal noted Handler had plenty of time to inspect before closing and that any issues were on her and the inspectors.
